How to boost girlfriend's self-esteem?

I tell her how beautiful and sexy I think she looks all the time, but she still thinks of herself as unattractive.

    Just telling her is not enough, your actions will always speak one million times louder than any tripe coming out of your mouth. Do you look at other girls when you are with her, believe me she notices that you think those girls are beautiful and it hurts her self-esteem. You've got to find a way to show her, she's the only girl you have eyes for. Do that and she will know she is beautiful.

    Don't tell her she's beautiful, she won't believe you. Her mother tells her she's beautiful all the time probably.

    Tell her things that are beautiful about her: "wow your eyes look amazing in this light" "your lips are soft" stuff like that. It'll mean more than "ur pretty". If you can, try making her think that what she doesn't like about herself is actually beautiful "you don't like your nose? Really? I think it's adorable, especially the way you crinkle it, it's so cute :)" it may take awhile but eventually she will stop being so upset about it.

    Also what I liked is when my boyfriend told me how weird looking he thought other girls (who I thought he liked) were. Yeah that sounds bad but it made me feel good to know he thought they weren't as attractive as I thought they were.
